How do I actually make a good conversation? I've avoided girls since 6th grade when I was brutally teased by them, reinforced in 9th. After getting over my girl scare I'm too paranoid about them; I think they talk shit about me behind my back etc. I know that sometimes that may be true but it gets to the point where I basically bore the shit out of a girl and they lose interest because I guess I come off as boring and disinterested. I realize what I'm doing most of the time but I can never stop it, things just come out of my mouth without me thinking about it.
This is how I talk to girls I don't know when they approach me.
Her: "Hi"
Me: "Hi"
Her: "I like your shirt"
Me: "Thanks"
Awkward silence
Her: "Well um.."
Me: "..."
Her: "Well see you later"
Me: "Bye"
How do I stop this from happening, I don't ever really keep up with subjects that most teens like, so I don't really have anything to say. What few female friends I have, I've gotten indirectly by telling jokes to my friends and them hearing it, from there its easy because I know their humor and how to talk to them, with strangers I'm just caught breathless. Please help.
